Footnotes
- Psalm 115:8 tn Heb “will be.” Another option is to take the prefixed verbal form as a prayer, “may those who make them end up like them.” sn Because the idols are lifeless, they cannot help their worshipers in times of crisis. Consequently the worshipers end up as dead as the gods in which they trust.
- Psalm 115:9 tn Or “[source of] help.”
- Psalm 115:9 tn Heb “and their shield.”
- Psalm 115:10 tn Heb “house.”
- Psalm 115:10 tn Or “[source of] help.”
